This would leave the heavy-hitter/most-wanted figures (Glimmer, Angella, Mermista, Kowl) for the main sub or 2015, but guarantee that the C/D-list PoP classic gals get their chance to become MOTUC figures.

Why can't we have a Weasel's Choice Sub. Where I pick the figures. It would have (Mini comic) trap jaw, masks of power demons, (Filmation) marzo, plundor, he-man, skeletor, teela, rattlor, and clawful! ooooh and evil seed! best. sub. ever.

There are a LOT of vintage POP toys left to be made, not to mention plenty of Filmation POP and Filmation Horde also. I'd happily subscribe to a mini-subscription which included: Mermista, Flutterina, Sweet-Bee, Double Trouble, Peekablue and Entrapta. Not to mention "major" characters like Queen Angella, Glimmer, Madame Razz and Broom, Scorpia, Kowl, Loo-Kee, etc.

I think the ones that would sell easily are PoP and Filmation, since there are so many great characters to make from both. But, I would totally buy a mini-comic/comic/obscure one too. Just imagine; Goat Man, Prince Dakon, Lodar, Garn, Slave Girl, Crimson Fury, Skelcons, Kex Queen....that would be awesome.

As far as Filmation variants, I am only interested in ones that have significant design changes; like Count Marzo, Tung Lasher, Clawful, Magestra, Hordak, Evilseed...maybe Evil-Lyn, because of the full color deco change. But, I would not buy it if it had He-Man, Skeletor, or Teela, since they would be exactly what we already have, for the most part. The changes on them would not be worth a sku, in my opinion (too similar).

Now, I would prefer these above the other choices, but I would also get a 200X or NA sub, depending on the first figures shown. For 200X, I am only interested in the following characters; Veena, Prahvus, Kulatak Elder, Lord Dactys, King Miro, Siren, Calix, Snake Armor He-Man, Ice Armor He-Man, and C&D Evil-Lyn. For NA, any of the following would be great; Tuskador, Artilla, Darius, Mara, Drissi, Master Sebrian, Hydron, Flogg, NA Skeletor, Crita, Quakke, Crystoll, and Hoove.

I'm not interested in a "little guy" sub, at all.

One sub I might be interested in that wasn't mentioned, would be a "New Characters" sub. But, I would really be specific about who'd make the new characters. Since they really knocked it out of the park the first time, I'd have the Four Horsemen come back and try again to make another great character. Next, I'd ask Martin Arriola who still works with Mattel as a designer and worked on the original toyline. Third, I'd ask Larry DiTillo, who wrote some of the best episodes from the Filmation cartoon, like Dragon's Gift, Time Corridor, and House of Shokoti. Fourth, I'd ask Rudy Obrero, one of the original box art painters and current artist on the maps and new boxes for MOTUC. The Fifth slot I'd give to Robert Lamb, a storyboard artist on the original Filmation MOTU cartoon who also worked on Dragon's Gift and House of Shokoti. And the final figure slot I'd give to Larry Houston, penciler on the vintage mini-comics; including "The Secret Liquid of Life" (with Geldor), "Slave City" (with Lodar), "The Temple of Darkness", and "Rock Warriors to the Rescue".

I'd definitely sign up for POP. It's the reason I. Started collecting MOTUC in the first place. This approach gets them out faster, catching up the lag, and it opens up slots in the main sub for other key characters.

This is a valid point, maybe that's what TG was subtly implying when he said we'll see more POP next year than ever before? Possibly it'd go down well as casual and hardcore fans will be catered to hopefully as six of the most wanted POP figures could potentially see the light of day while, as you mention, it leaves slots open for other factions. Granted it's only six slots/figures but IMO that's still not a bad thing.
